Commentary on Selected Proverbs

                                 Proverbs 10:30 (KJB)

This verse declares that "the righteous shall never be removed." When God creates living humans in His image, He creates them to be righteous and good. Genesis 1:31; Genesis 1:27 (KJB). Since God can never lose anything He has ever created, then this righteous image of God in every human must remain forever. It can "never be removed." Ecclesiastes 3:14; Psalm 111:7-8 (KJB).

But when the weakness of free will in Adam caused him to fall into sin, then the Devil became able to inject spiritual death into Adam and Eve and all of their descendants. Genesis 2:17; Genesis 3:15 (KJB). Since Adam and all living humans have sinned and will sin, then they all become worthy of eternal spiritual death and separation from God's Love forever because God can never accept sin and evil. Habakkuk 1:12-13 (KJB). The Devil is happy to give humans this spiritual death. The "seed" of the Devil is spiritual death planted into the hearts of every living human. This means every human who lives long enough to sin possesses a dual nature; that is, a good and living nature and a dead and evil nature. For this reason, the most righteous humans who ever lived commit some sins, and the most evil humans who ever lived do some good.

This verse teaches that God can never lose the righteous nature that He puts into humans. God evidently has a plan to forever save the righteous natures of all humans whom He creates in His image. This verse also prophesies that "the wicked shall not inhabit the earth" which implies that the righteous natures of humans can inhabit the earth.

But in order to accomplish this salvation, God must dissolve the dual natures of humans in order to separate their righteous natures from their evil natures. Psalm 75:3; II Peter 3:9-13 (KJB). This means every living human must return to the faith that God put into them when He created them so that God can save all of His living humans from eternal death. Habukkuk 2:4 (KJB).

God actually has two ways in which He can save every living human from spiritual death which threatens to become eternal death. When Jesus, who is God, suffered and died on the cross, He shed His blood and water to wash away the sins and evil, and annul the spiritual deaths, of all living humans who would return to faith in Him while still alive in the flesh. Revelation 1:5; John 13:6-8; John 5:24 (KJB).

But Jesus died on the cross to remove spiritual death from the lives of all His living humans. Hebrews 2:9-13 (KJB). Because He was dead for only three days, Jesus turned eternal spiritual death into temporary death when He rose from the dead victorious over all sin, evil, spiritual death, and the Devil. I John 3:8; Revelation 1:17-18 (KJB)

In order to accomplish His lesser form of salvation for all living humans confined to the regions of death, Christ will visit them in the end of the world, and He will cause them all to repent and return to faith in Him as the Lamb of God their Savior. Upon their repentance and faith, Christ will be able to use His fiery wrath against evil to dissolve their beings in order to separate their faithful, living natures from their spiritually dead natures so that He can resurrect and recreate their living natures to possess an eternal life on His recreated earth, and He will cast their separated, dead and evil natures into an eternal lake of fire. Proverbs 10:30; Revelation 5:11-14; II Peter 3:9-13; Revelation 20:5; Revelation 20:11-15; Revelation 22:11-12; Revelation 21:1-5 (KJB). The promise and prophecy of Revelation 21:5, "Behold, I make all things new," must be fulfilled. Christ will recover and recreate every living human that He ever created in His image. Romans 11:36 (KJB).
